Exhausted
Watching body positive media for me is like putting a band aid on a much deeper cut. It's comforting for the moment, but isn't a quick fix.
Trying on a pair of shorts yesterday that were tighter than usual, I still find that I'm triggered deeply by things like this happening. My perfectionist tendencies want to still go haywire. While I didn't fully panic, I still subconsciously was feeling helpless about it.
Hurricane Beryl hit here in Texas and made our power go out. My mom and I share one car, and more than one time, my mom would be gone with it before I even got up....

& it still is...
this is my story
...not a human experience absolute
but it was never about food
or appetite...or lack thereof
it's imperative you understand
no...
it was much more than that
a desperate need for the one damn thing
sorely lacking in my life
something stolen before I knew it was needed
...or that it even existed
an elusive slippery kind of concept
information...without proof
& I could not comprehend...
...something I'd never had
so I created my own version
refusing to eat what I was...
...not a human experience absolute
but it was never about food
or appetite...or lack thereof

Excessive Intake Of Chocolate Pretzels
Heartbeat in my fingertips
I should know better than this
The comedown is hell
But it’s something I miss
Too much is never enough
I love feeling like shit
10 o’clock and my heart’s still racing
Can’t sleep
My hands won’t stop shaking
I take too much to feel awake
And to forget everything
It’s the perfect type of wrong
Because it doesn’t last long
What’s the harm
I’ll feel better later after I starve
Self hate pouring out of my lips
I shouldn’t have done this
I...
I should know better than this
The comedown is hell
But it’s something I miss
Too much is never enough
I love feeling like shit
10 o’clock and my heart’s still racing
Can’t sleep
My hands won’t stop shaking
I take too much to feel awake
And to forget everything
It’s the perfect type of wrong
Because it doesn’t last long
What’s the harm
I’ll feel better later after I starve
Self hate pouring out of my lips

Thirty Five
Thirty five+ years
of fighting an ED
Called bulimia
is far from easy
'cause healing
is not linear it's
setbacks falling
down & crawling
back up starting
over at point 0
the holistic work
i am doing with S
causes changes
slowly over time
going to the gym
and working out is
a mood boost yet
still didn't suffice
added microdoses
Truffles to the mix
it certainly asks for
some heavy artillery
this fucking ED of mine

N/A
to each their own mission;
through human condition;
most want a million dollars;
I want a meal, and you;
just living in another land;
nothing "other than" comes true;
most want forty arcres and a mule;
one no longer wants to be an overused tool....
staring down one's reflection in a pool;
one just wants the spoon, when the chilly arrives;
the only thing that seems real....
...
